December 4-5

 This Friday we went to the play 'Pioneer Song' put on by BYU-Idaho

Saturday we went back up to get our tree... We ended up finding a better one!  So, this is our future Christmas Tree


In the Apartment....




Fully Decorated. We don't have any ornaments, and so we did a chain and popcorn strand, which neither of us had done before,...




Haha, it is still a work in progress though, I think...

Thanksgiving Week!

Thanksgiving week was so much fun! To start the week, Jordan and I went caving to the Ice Caves on the 20th. We had a blast and there was hot peach cobbler ready when we came out of the cave.

That night we drove to Draper, UT where we stayed with Cherstin's brother Shawn and his family for a couple days. We went to the BYU vs. AIR FORCE football game, which was so much fun!





Then on Monday morning, we drove down to Fruita, CO where we stayed a couple days with Jordan's family there. We went bowling... Where Jordan bowled a 195!




On Wednesday, We headed down to New Mexico to where Jordan's sister Kassie lives. We went via Moab, where the guys all went Mountain biking. The women went on to New Mexico!






As this was Cherstin's first Thanksgiving away from her parents home, she was a little nervous.
But, she had a wonderful time and is very grateful to the Morris family for welcoming her into the family. She had a great week!

These are all the desserts we made!



Cherstin even made her first homemade apple pie completely from scratch for Thanksgiving dinner!




One day we went to Jordan's Grandma's place where we got to pet and feed several horses!




On the last day in New Mexico, We all went to the Aztec Ruins. They were fun to walk around and to see!




The week was incredible!!  It was hard to come back to school!





November 13-14

Tonight we went on a Wagon ride with BYU-Idaho outdoors activities. They took us on a wagon pulled by two horses. Then we stopped by a fire where we had stew and cobbler made in dutch ovens.





 Jordan's siblings Kammie and Bobby came up for the weekend On Saturday we went to Mesa Falls. It was all snowy and really cold but it was absolutely beautiful!
Later that night we went to Collegiate Dancers, which was great










November 7

Jordan and I taught 'Crime Prevention' At a Boy Scout POW WOW today.  It was held at BYU-Idaho and we had two classes with about 17 boys who were ages (12-17)... 


Wow!  That was a teaching experience for sure!

Halloween Weekend


We went with our friends Ryan and Courteney to some land that Courteney's parents own. We went and picked out our future Christmas Tree! We spent the night up there the day before Halloween.!




This was similar to the cabin we stayed at. We played games and had Dinner and then Breakfast here with them.




The next morning, we went up to the top of the mountain even on 4-wheelers. It was bitter cold!
